Non-fluoroscopic radiofrequency catheter ablation of right- and left-sided ventricular arrhythmias.
Article in Postepy w kardiologii interwencyjnej = Advances in interventional cardiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionRadiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) is an important method of treatment of ventricular arrhythmias (VAs). In the majority of RFCA, fluoroscopy is used, exposing patients and medical staff to all related side effects. Current experience of non-fluoroscopic (NF)-RFCA in VAs from the left side is limited.
aimAnalysis of safety and effectiveness of NF-RFCA of VAs from left- and right-sided cardiac chambers. MATERIAL AND
methodsFrom 2014 to 2018, a group of 128 patients who underwent RFCA of VAs were retrospectively divided into two groups: NF-RFCA and fluoroscopic (F)-RFCA. Patients in each group were then subsequently subdivided into two groups based on VAs localization - left- (LS-Va) and right-sided (RS-Va) VAs. In all patients the CARTO Biosense Webster mapping system was used.
resultsIn group 1 (NF-RFCA
conclusionsNF-RFCA in VAs from the right and left cardiac chamber is safe and equally effective as F-RFCA, and it should be implemented as often as possible for protection of patients and electrophysiology staff.
